Skye was a good liar. That was one skill no one in SHIELD had needed to teach her. When she really wanted to, she could make just about anyone believe just about anything. She was so good at it that she could even lie to herself really well. She could convince herself that the time she spent with Ward was about the lie. She needed him to believe she trusted him. She needed him to believe he still had a chance with her. She told herself that all the tings she did regarding him were about the lie, her cover. She was simply playing the part.

She told herself she didn't want to be there tonight. She didn't want to sit down and watch the show with him again. She told herself that she wanted to stay as far away from him as possible and that all the talking, all the flirting, even getting Caroline to help her Christmasify his apartment was a part of her mission to find out what Garrett was really up to. It wasn't because she honestly cared if he had a good Christmas. It wasn't because she cared about him at all. That was the lie she very skillfully told herself.

Protected from the cold by coat, hat and scarf, Skye made her way over to his place juggling a pizza and a case of beer. Not that she had any intention of drinking much of the latter. She needed a clear head for this. She definitely couldn't allow her guard to drop the way it had that night after Damon had disappeared. She might have to fake wanting to be close to him, but she was determined not to fall for his lies again.

Balancing everyone with one arm, Skye reached forward to knock on his door. They had another hour before the show would start, but being early meant there would be time to eat before that crapfest of a show started.

"Pretty sure I'd like you anyway." he replied with a shrug. The mystery was far from what had originally drawn him to her. In fact he'd fought and fought not to feel the way he did about her. But some things just seemed fated. In spite of everything he'd done and everything she believed so strongly in, here she was, with him, believeing in him, trusting him. It meant the world to him.

But for now there was the damn show, two weeks to go and they still hadn't a damn clue of any of it bar the simple fact that he had a plan for her, that he wanted to keep his promise, help her find her father. At least one of them should have a family that cared.

He grabbed two beers quickly handing her one and moved to sit on the couch.

"I'm admitting nothing about liking it, which isn't a lie, its...a not lie. I think you traumatised Glen. He keeps glaring at the lights."

Upon hearing his name the little puppy bounded across the room and came to a skidding halt glancing up at Ward who gave in and fussed it for a few seconds before looking with a practiced eye around the room before deeming it okay to discuss what he wanted to ask her. "Hey...If things go...if I ask you, would you keep Glen, for a while." he'd never say why, couldn't. But Skye knew enough of his history to know why he'd ask something like that. "There's no one I trust more than you to do it."
